Android 6.0 Is Marshmallow, Google Hangouts Goes Live

Google names Android 6.0, Google Hangouts gets own domain, age ratings for music videos, Project Ara gets delayed, Facebook revamps Notes, and the Nokia 3310 is hard as nails.

Google Toasts Marshmallow

Google has announced the name of the next version of Android, Android 6.0. Following the naming convention of coupling successive letters in the alphabet with something sweet, Google has named Android 6.0, Marshmallow. As we alreadyknew the name would begin with an M, Marshmallow was a rather obvious choice.

What’s in a name? Not much, really, but the fact Google has named Android 6.0 means it’s much closer to being released to the public. The final version of the Android 6.0 SDK (software development kit) and the third and final Marshmallow software preview are both now available to download. However, Google insists “they are not intended for consumer use”.

Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) is expected to be launched to the public later this fall, bringing a simpler approach to permissions, support for USB Type-C, support for Android Wallet, and a rash of new features and improvements. Google is expected to launch two new Nexus devices showcasing Marshmallow; one from Huawei and one from LG.

Google Launches Hangouts Site

Google has awarded Google Hangouts its very own website, meaning users no longer have to go through Google+ or Gmail to access to messaging service. You still need to sign into your Google account to use Hangouts, but at least it removes one pointless step in the process.

The Google Hangouts website is the epitome of simplicity, with three large buttons allowing you to message, make a phone call, or make a video call. All of your contacts and previous conversations should be available on the new site, making this is a seamless change.

Jordanna Chord, manager of the Hangouts growth team, announced the move, saying, “From our new site you’ll be able to take advantage of the best of Hangouts in the browser, along with an inspiring image to get you through the day.”

Move over, Facebook Messenger, Google Hangouts has arrived. This is also a timely change, given the recent interest in Common Hangouts.
